Remind me that walking to and from Bunnings on a day like this is a shit idea lol
Yeah, but a sausage sanga makes it worth it 8).
The Vicroads log book is expensive & the back cover keeps falling off.
Jack of all trades, master of none.
Hence why i'm in all these different threads and boards.

To start your dream of becoming Rui the Bumblebee
Don't know why but seeing "bee" on this forum just reminded me of Bea's journal

It pains me every time I pretend I didn't hear a homeless person ask me for spare change. Like a tiny stab at the heart. I don't know why I'm like this :( It's like I dehumanise them for the brief five seconds they try to initiate contact with me and I just close them off because I'm irrationally afraid of the consequences of recognising them as humans in times of hardship.

Even more, I think I'm just afraid of what I would do next after I've given them some spare change. Do I continue giving out spare change to homeless people? Or was this just a one-off where I can rejoice in feeling better about myself for recognising them? Either way, it does make me confront some really harsh truths about myself. I wonder if people feel the same way.

Mate, I spent half of last year homeless, in addition to a few occasions as a young child, and I still find it difficult to stop myself from looking straight ahead as I walk past. I hope you don't think worse of yourself for it -- it's not just a harsh truth for you, but for most people.
